Early Plant Succession in Abandoned Pastures in Ecuador
We compared early plant succession in four abandoned pastures of differing age since abandonment and a nearby secondary forest site in northwestern Ecuador. Two "Open" pastures had no tree canopy covering, and two "Guava" pastures had a well-developed canopy cover of Psidium guajaua. No site had been seeded with pasture grasses. All pastures were compared in a chronological sequence; nvo were m...
متن کاملYoung restored forests increase seedling recruitment in abandoned pastures in the Southern Atlantic rainforest.
Planting seedlings is a common technique for abandoned pastures restoration in the tropics, supposedly by increasing the seedling recruitment and accelerating succession. In this study we evaluated the role of a young restored forest (one year old) in enhancing seedling establishment from two sources (seed rain and seed bank), in the Atlantic Rainforest region in Southern Brazil. We compared ab...

The exogeneity principle has been betrayed at times. Nevertheless, it is still the gate-keeper in support for the principle of parsimony of explanation, which economists have taken from Milton Friedman (1953) as thei...
متن کاملControl of Exotic Annual Grasses to Restore Native Forbs in Abandoned Agricultural Land
Exotic annual grasses are a major challenge to successful restoration in temperate and Mediterranean climates. Experiments to restore abandoned agricultural fields from exotic grassland to coastal sage scrub habitat were conducted over two years in southern California, U.S.A. Grass control methods were tested in 5 m2 plots using soil and vegetation treatments seeded with a mix of natives. The t...
متن کاملGefitinib ('Iressa', ZD1839) may restore chemosensitivity in NSCLC patients?
Gefitinib ('Iressa, ZD1839) has promising antitumor activity in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, patients with advanced NSCLC have few treatment options available if they are refractory to gefitinib. We describe four cases of patients with advanced NSCLC who previously responded to gefitinib and obtained significant tumor regression through retreatment with other cytotoxic agents. G...
